Quoted: So what happened to the MP5 tho View Quote Stop being a poor and buy the H&K Sp5 or one of the many Turkish version licensed copies made on H&K machinery. PSA is busy selling every AR and AK including 9mm PCC versions they can make, not to mention the Dagger and the Rock pistols. It really doesn’t make any sense to waste time on a PSA MP5 when you can get a Turkish one for $900 or the real thing for twice that. |

Quoted: A SiCo Sparrow, while it'll handle 5.7. It's not a good choice. Still very loud. 5.7 really needs a rifle can. With some exceptions.

Keep the same RMR in action without messing with the illumination issues of the dual illum model. Wouldn’t it be easier to just run an RM06 though, haha? |

View Quote Yes but, well I had the RM08 sitting there and had gotten a screaming deal on it so… it’s actually pretty good outdoors without the LED on and the REM dial is a lot easier to adjust so I kinda like it as-is. |

That’s true. The rheostat dial is pretty easy to manipulate and it gives you some fixed adjustments on an otherwise uncontrollable RDS. Points for originality and ingenuity. |

Well, the American Eagle ball sucks in it. So it's somewhat a fair question. I’ve run about two thousand rounds of AE through my sbr p90, AR57 upper, fn 5.7, ruger 5.7 and psa rock 5.7. Never had a problem in any gun. Not saying it’s good ammo. It’s just range plinking ammo. I’m just surprised how many people hate it. |

Why was it stated that It would come out on January 4?
I’m guessing they are waiting for for shotshow to announce it edit for all kinds of voice to txt errors |

Spent all my money on other shit while I wait
Hoping it comes sooner than later Is it going to be available for the most part? Or small batches from time to time? Any plans for subs? |

That looks like a nickel plated case? It is hard to tell, but it also doesn't appear to have the coating on it. I wonder if that is just a model/prototype for the show, or the final production product?

Ok, the picture says that AAC 5.7x28 ammo is "currently in production", but when can us mere mortals actually BUY it?

Just a guess, as most other ammo designed for semi automatics have tapered cases for that reason. |

Ammo cost has held me back, as well as the fact that all the 5.7 pistols are full sized (little large for carry) .
Well it seems you guys are going to solve both these issues between the ammo and possibly a compact 5.7 pistol. Great news! |

yup. Looks like a 4.4"er version of the rock will be available.. ordered.

Yeah it's kinda dumb. 30 Super Carry is a better mousetrap for short barrels and high capacity. Regardless I am very glad to see all these new options on the market. I'm most looking forward to the S&W 5.7, they have been doing a great job with the design and execution of their M&P line. |
